Abstract

This article considers the constitutionality of proposals to stimulate the development of Northern Australia by the creation of zones in which concessional taxation rates would apply. It considers different issues that would arise if the zone were confined to the Northern Territory, or Northern Australia more generally, in light of a recent High Court decision.
